Lotteries are regressive, meaning lower-income groups spend more of their budgets on lottery games than higher-income groups.
Doesn't this just illustrate that they are dumber? Nobody forces their dumb asses to buy lottery tickets instead of food.

They also funnel money in public schools in poor neighborhoods.
That’s how they sold legalized gambling in Louisiana. But the simply dedicated those funds to education and stopped paying from the general fund. Zero net gain for education.
“All of the money will go towards education! Ahem, but we’re taking that same money from education so nothing will really change except stupidity taxes are going up.”

I missed the part where low-income people have a gun put to their head and commanded to buy lottery tickets.
Exactly..
But CNN and white liberal retards will keep making excuse after excuse for these assholes who refuse to take accountability for themselves and their actions. It’s fricking mind blowing

I agree, but poor black people are the only ones I see buying lotto tickets.

the differing capitalization
Some time in the past couple of years, Black became a proper noun when talking about race. Not white, brown, or any other color, only Black.

experts are pointing to the flaws of a lottery system they say unfairly targets poor Black and brown communities.

Who exactly? It’s gotta be 1 person

Good

I will agree with this. Eliminate the lottery. It's a tax for dummies.

CNN just announced that Black people are incapable of controlling free will.

I mean, that applies to toilet paper too. And every other commodity that people buy. Everything is racist.

The lottery has always been a tax on the poor
Posted on 11/11/22 at 2:58 pm to LSUGUMBO
Maybe CNN should tell minorities how to spend their money..

They're not retards. They have control over a group of people and they are going to throw anything at the wall that sticks to make them think they are fighting for them instead of controlling them.
They're the evil geniuses of our time.

Dollar and value menus are racist because that aims for the same demographic as the lottery. Something should be done to make em equal.

i’ll never understand why we pay for low income schools’ breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Posted on 11/11/22 at 3:16 pm to Klark Kent
Not disagreeing but what do you mean exactly? Low income school districts?

The article is.
And CNN should know every purchase is regressive to poor people, essentially.
